The one that came out of mine is non OE at 290 long, 3.1 wire, 14.5 id and 20.8 od. I feel thats a bit long for that spec though it shot very well.

Thanks Rob

According to my scribbles the NoS (allegedly) spring 337 mm New 324 scragged, 20.8 mm OD, 2.8 mm wire, 40.5 total coils, 22 lb.f/inch rate
Pre load 115 mm Output 10.5 ft.lb. in .177

Also T W Chambers standard spring 325 mm x 21 mm x 3 mm wire, 41 coils, 20 lb.f/inch rate
Pre load 116 mm output 11 ft.lb. in .22

Additional note Titan 1 makes the power "too easily" so would trim down giving little pre load and stiffer spring (40 lb.f/inch rate)

May be of interest
P.S. the Chambers spring/seal deal is a bargain to me.

Cheers for that.
The spring that came in it was making a very smooth 10.5 and thinner wire (3mm) than the Chambers one. The one I've ordered has an ID that will fit the guide and is only 265 free length.
I may also experiment with the original spring and cut it shorter. I'm sure it was slightly over sprung.
I'll be avoiding titan at the minute as a) i don't like them and b) i cant find one with a suitable id.
